Library Books
This week was the last week for classroom book exchanges. All library books must be returned during the week of June 9th to June 13th. Mrs. Gunson will be sending home notices of missing books with students. Please take a moment to check for any missing library books at home. Thanks for your help!
Scholastic Book Fair
We are excited to host our spring Scholastic Book Fair from June 9th to June 13th. Classes will have the chance to preview the selection of books on Monday and Tuesday, and are welcome to bring money to purchase items any day during the week. The book fair will also be open during the fun fair from 5 to 8 p.m. on Wednesday, June 11th. Our school was able to purchase many new books, resources and coding materials from the money we raised from our fall book fair. We greatly appreciate your support and look forward to adding more great resources to our school library.
Walk ‘N’ Roll
The “Walk ‘N Roll” challenge starts on Monday, June 2nd! Sunnybrae students will be challenged to take green transportation to school by walking, rolling, or riding the school bus to school!
Walking, or rolling, to school has many benefits:
-
Healthier students are out getting exercise!
-
Fewer emissions, less air pollution
-
Safer school zones with fewer cars = healthier communities
For more information about the benefits of Active Transportation. Ontario Active School Travel.
Students will receive a card to track the number of times that they walk, roll, or take a bus to school. After they fill their card, students will drop off their card to the Walk n’ Roll ballot box and get a new card. Each week members from the Green Team will be drawing names to win a prize! The challenge is from June 2nd to June 20th. Go Bulldogs!

Phones
When dialing the school, please listen to the message at the start before pressing ‘0’. If you press ‘0’ too soon the system will cut you off. Once you are through the first message you are directed to select the extension. For the office you can select ‘0’ or put in 27300. If you do not get an answer please leave a message.
Safe Arrival system for SCDSB schools – email [email protected] or call 1-888-885-8065 to report an absence (we recommend using the email where possible as there are ongoing problems with the phone messaging). Parents/guardians are responsible for reporting a child’s absence/arriving late prior to the start of the school day. Do not wait for the call from the school. Please note this system is to report student’s who will be absent or late not to report student’s leaving early. Those messages should be sent directly to your child’s teacher.
